DataLocker Security Commitments

DataLocker is a dedicated security company. Security runs through everything we do. We often go beyond what any standard requires in terms of security, because we can and because there is a purpose to it. From our product portfolio, the DL4 FE is a good example with true device level 3 certification and a Common Criteria EAL5+ certified controller. The DL4 touts an always-on hardware-based AES 256-bit XTS crypto engine that meets rigorous cryptographic standards.

We understand that our information security practices are important to you. While we don’t like to expose too much detail around our practices (as it can provide valuable information to the very people we are protecting ourselves against), we have provided some general information below to give you confidence in how we secure the data entrusted to us.

Data Center Security

Also, no actual data from the storage products is saved on the cloud. Only SafeConsole, the management console, is hosted on the cloud. SafeConsole Cloud utilizes Amazon Web Services (AWS) datacenters in the United States, Canada, Asia Pacific, and Europe depending on your organization’s location and/or requirements. More information on the applicable AWS certification(s) can be found here.
